Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe

Porsche 911 3.3 turbo coupe, 1988, Grand Prix White, 70,000 miles, 2 tone Leather Interior, Detailed History, Superb Throughout. , 1988 911 (930) 3.3 turbo, 70,000 miles, 4 Speed Manual, Grand Prix White, Blue & Linen Leather Interior, Electrically Adjustable Sports Seats (Heated), Limited Slip Differential, Electric Sunroof, Comprehensive & Detailed History, Superb Condition Throughout, , BACKGROUND:, Porsche first added the range topping ‘turbo’ model to the well established 911 range in 1975. Following on from the internal development number of 930, the turbo model quickly became known as the 930 and was even marketed as the 930 turbo Carrera in North America. , The turbo model initially came with a 3.0-litre engine offering 256bhp and stood out from the crowed with extended wheel arches to accommodate the wider wheels and its large ‘whale tail’ rear spoiler. , In 1978, the turbo’s engine was revised and now offered 296bhp from its enlarged 3.3-litre engine. Other upgrades were the addition of an intercooler which was located on-top of the engine and a revised rear spoiler (the tea-tray) developed to house the additional engineering. This revised engine helped reduce turbo lag whilst the 4 speed transmission would stay until 1989 when the 930 gained a 5 speed transmission for its last year of production. , The 911 turbo became a symbol of excess and a bedroom poster favourite throughout the 1980’s and set the benchmark by which the 911 would be compared to its Italian supercar rivals for the next few decades, whilst remaining an every day useable and practical car. , DESCRIPTION:, This 930 finished in classic Grand Prix White and optioned with contrasting two-tone interior finished in Midnight Blue and Linen Leather presents very nicely. The bodywork on this 930 is beautifully straight with superb shut lines and panel fit and the paintwork shows no major marks or blemishes. , The FUCH alloy wheels have been refinished to an extremely high standard in gloss white with black detailing which compliments the look of the car, whilst the paintwork benefits from a complete Paint Protection Film covering which was fitted some years ago which has protected the paintwork well and still looks fresh and glossy. , Internally, the cabin again presents very nicely, with the special order two-tone Midnight Blue & Linen leather interior adding some contrast to the white exterior and showing no major signs of wear other than a light age related patina. Carpets and trim also show no major signs of damage or abuse for their 36 years of service and the electrical items, windows, sunroof, mirrors and seat adjustments all work as intended. , On the road, this 930 is a real drivers experience. The lack of power steering means low speed manoeuvring needs a fair amount of effort but rewards aplenty once you gather some pace at which point the classic 911 steering feel and feedback all the payback you need. These 4 speed turbos offer superb torque at slower speeds but fairly docile at lower revs, making driving around town and in traffic fairly practical with just 1st and 2nd gear. , However, once the opportunity arises and an open road becons and the revs start to rise past the well documented turbo lag, things get very exciting very quickly as the boost gauge flicks over towards 1bar of boost, the rear of the car squats, the steering comes alive and you are catapulted towards the scenery in a rather addictive and smile inducing fashion. , This 930 is a hugely enjoyable and rewarding car to drive once the driver becomes familiar with its old school 911 traits and a devastatingly quick though comfortable machine which will not disappoint. , SPECIFICATION:, Model Year / Type: 1988 911 turbo, Completion Date: 28th April 1988, Exterior Colour: Grand Prix White / 908, Chassis Number: WP0ZZZ93ZJS000526, Engine Number: 67J00730, Transmission No: 2J11768 / G93036, Interior Material: Midnight Blue & Linen Leather, Date of Reg: 1st August 1988, Supplying Dealer: JCT Brooklands, , BUILD OPTIONS:, C16 UK Specification, 018 Leather Steering Wheel with Extended Boss, 058 Impact Absorbent Bumpers, 139 Heated Seat Left with Electric Height Adjustment, 220 LSD †Limited Slip Differential (40%), 330 Blaupunkt Toronto Radio Cassette, 335 3 Point Rear Seat Belts, 340 Heated Seat Right with Electric Height Adjustment, 348 Forged Alloy Wheels in Grand Prix White, 383 Sports Seat Left, 387 Sports Seat Right, 462 Sekuriflex Laminated Windscreen, 494 Sound System with Amplifier, 567 Gradual Tint Windscreen, 650 Electric Sunroof, 975 Luggage Compartment - Velour Carpet , , PERFORMANCE:, Engine: 3.3 flat six turbo, Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive, Power: 296bhp @ 5,500rpm, Acceleration: 0-62mph in 4.9 seconds , Top Speed: 162 mph (where legal)!, , HISTORY:, This 930 example rolled of the Stuttgart production line on 28th April 1988 before being delivered to JCT Brooklands Porsche for registration to its original owner from Doncaster on 1st August 1988. , The Service history shows the 930 was serviced and maintained by AFN Porsche from its first service through until September 1993 when the car moved into the independent care including some well respected specialists including RPM, Hartech, Autofarm and Ninemeister. , The Car passed through several ownership changes over the years and was purchased by the current owner in December 2020 from a used Porsche Specialist when the car had covered 65,500 miles and has used the turbo for special occasions including club meetings, days out and a European road trip.
